And last week’s technical highlights were…

Because our priority is the quality of the information that reaches our readers, we have selected a few articles published over the past week that reflect the most current talks in the technology world at Pplware.

We talked about the new MediaTek and Snapdragon SoCs, analyzed the Xiaomi 12T smartphone and the Logitech MX Mechanical keyboard, several scientific achievements and much more.

MediaTek is currently one of the most important manufacturers in the mobile processor segment. But it's also no news to anyone that it's a less popular brand in terms of consumer praise. Despite this, the company remains firm and firm in its mission to bring new products to market.

In this sense, the Taiwanese company recently launched its new Kompanio 528 and Kompanio 520 SoCs for Chromebooks.

Xiaomi recently introduced new smartphones Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro🇧🇷 These two models attack different ranges with very attractive prices compared to the specifications, with the Xiaomi 12T taking a prominent place in the upper mid-range.

After a few days of testing and using it as my main smartphone, the day has come to share some of the best things I found about this smartphone, as well as the ones that I liked the least.

After numerous setbacks, Artemis Mission 1 was finally launched. Originally scheduled for August 29, the launch of the rocket will be the first step towards the return of earthlings to the moon.

This officially marks the start of the NASA Artemis program.

Users who like to stay up to date with what's happening in the hardware segment also like to find out what's happening in the consumer segment, as well as the most powerful news about professional and extremely powerful systems.

So, Cerebras Andromeda was recently introduced - one of the fastest supercomputers in the world, with at least 13 million cores.

Rugged smartphones tend to be oversized and inelegant machines, but manufacturers have taken care to add details that make a difference in terms of design. The new Oukitel WP21 is one such case.

But this is not just a smartphone with an improved image. Oukitel WP21 offers features that promise high performance and even a second screen on the back that can provide the user with quick and useful information.

After MediaTek announced the first smartphone SoC to support Wi-Fi 7, it was expected that Qualcomm would not take long to introduce its own solution. Here comes Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. In addition to better performance, compared to Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (in both versions), there will be even more processing of information based on artificial intelligence processes.

Qualcomm's new SoC should start showing up on smartphones later this year... with a curious absence from the list of partners.

O space telescope James Webb (JWST) took a picture of a star that has not yet finished forming, showing a disk of debris that could eventually become planets. This birth image was taken about 450 light years away and the details are unique, never before seen by humans.

JWST has captured a protostar or prototype star. This object is a candidate for stars if its mass is large enough. But there is more interesting data in this incredible image.

ARM SoCs are increasingly present in the PC market and Qualcomm wants to be one of the biggest players in this coming change. The proposals are already there, but they still need to be finalized, especially in relation to Windows and what this system offers.

To speed up this process, Qualcomm has introduced a new offering that will be released to the market soon. He showed the Oryon SoC, which will surpass the Apple M2 in the PC market.

In the conditions of the energy crisis, the possibilities of launching new technologies and developing others that are already known are taking on a new expression. The gas crisis, the prices of other fossil fuels and the reflection of these high energy production prices are opening the door to new products. This was the goal of investing in a solution that has been talked about for several years to use an acoustic heat pump that does not emit greenhouse gases and has a very low carbon footprint.

In practice, this equipment uses sound energy to heat and cool homes. Do you know that even noise can generate heat energy?

The Logitech MX Keys keyboard has been one of the best productivity keyboards of the last couple of years, offering a solid feature set and a very modern design. However, it looks like Logitech is trying to improve its performance even further by combining the same features with the capabilities of mechanical keys in the new Logitech MX Mechanical, a wireless keyboard that's simple and has slightly different typing.

After two weeks of use, today we present our Logitech MX Mechanical review.

We have seen here many times that technology combined with medicine can change lives. This time, what we bring to you may not change them, but it will certainly make many processes easier: 3D printed medicines.

Sounds like science fiction, but trust me, it could happen soon.
